Help eradicate childhood blindness |
During May, The Vitamin Shoppe store at 1935 E. Camelback Road will accept cash donations on behalf of Vitamin Angels. The goal is to eradicate childhood blindness caused by vitamin A deficiency (VAD) worldwide by the year 2020. The Operation 20/20 campaign will alleviate vitamin A deficiency by providing just two high-dose vitamin A capsules to children ages 1 to 4 and lactating mothers each year for a course of four to five years. Customers can donate $1 or more to the campaign and sign a Vitamin Angels paper angel to hang in the store. Any customer who donates $5 or more will receive a limited edition reusable bag. On-line customers can also donate with each purchase at www.vitaminshoppe.com. For more information, visit www.VitaminAngels.org.
